Review of The Sacrament

I enjoy Ti West and think he is an underrated horror director. It seems that the main cast all worked together before with each other and with Ti West. It's funny that this is a movie about cults and I'm pretty sure this will only get a cult following and live under the radar. The tone of the film is creepy and for the majority of the film nothing too interesting really happens to be honest. Who would have thought "Fix Me Jesus" could give off an uncomfortable vibe. Things elevate rather slowly, but once the juicy bit starts it gets kind of brutal and intense. It's a pretty interesting watch and doesn't fit Ti West's normal kind of filmmaking. It could have been much better if it was a fuller movie and tried to captivate from the beginning. Most of the characters had no development and it felt like they were just there to be a body count. Yes the sense of dread and uncomfortableness rises through the film, but most people who would view this will find it exhausting waiting for the pay off.
